PEAR CRISP



Pear Crisp image

Choose Bosc pears that are ripe but still a little firm for the filling of this oat-almond crisp -- they'll stand up well to baking.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup sliced almonds
3 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
6 Bosc pears (about 2 1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees with rack in center.
  • Crisp topping:Stir together oats, sugar, almonds, flour, and salt. Add butter and mix with hands until small clumps form and dry mixture is coated in butter. Cover with plastic and refrigerate.
  • Filling:Peel, halve, and core pears, then slice into 1/2-inch-thick pieces. Add to a large bowl and toss with lime juice as you work to prevent pears from browning. Toss with sugar, ginger, flour, and salt. Transfer to a 2-quart baking dish. Remove crisp topping from refrigerator and break into small pieces. Scatter evenly over the top. Transfer to oven and bake until bubbly, 50 to 60 minutes (tent top with foil if browning too quickly). Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack 20 minutes before serving with vanilla ice cream. Crisp is best eaten the day it's made, but can be stored, covered, for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.

MINI BLUEBERRY PEAR CRISPS



Mini Blueberry Pear Crisps image

Who doesn't love mini desserts? Of course your can make this just as easily as one large crisp, but I enjoy the portion control of the mini crisps. Bake them in either ramekins or half pint canning jars (they work GREAT, plus have lids for refrigeration). They are great for serving to guests or for a very small family, like mine. I can make eight mini crisps, freeze a few for later on right in their baking dishes, and reheat either in the microwave or the oven.

Time 45m

Yield 8 Mini Crisps, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 lbs pears, cored and chopped
1 cup blueberries
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup rolled oats (not instant)
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons cold butter
15 raw almonds
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Wash, cut, peel (if desired, I don't use pesticides on my pear tree so I don't) your pears.
  • Toss pears and blueberries with sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. If you are using individual ramekins or jars, let them sit for 15 minutes or so to allow the flour and sugar to extract some of the juices, tossing again every 5 minutes.
  • Spoon fruit mixture into individual jars.
  • Using a food processor or chopper (I use the slap chopper), chop the almonds and the butter (works great in the slap chopper).
  • Add butter and almonds to the brown sugar and oats and mix making sure the butter is evenly mixed.
  • Sprinkle the topping on the individual crisps.
  • If baking individual crisps, bake at 375 for 25-30 minutes.
  • If baking one large crisp, bake at 375 for 40 minutes.

MINI PEAR-AND-CRANBERRY AMARETTI CRISPS



Mini Pear-and-Cranberry Amaretti Crisps image

Sliced almonds and store-bought amaretti-cookies made from almond flour and egg whites-double the nutty flavor of these crisps, which each serve one or two people. Silky pears bring the sweetness, and cranberries keep things interesting with their mouth-puckering punch. A scoop of vanilla ice cream melting into the crags is, of course, a welcome addition.

Categories     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Time 1h10m

Yield Serves 2 to 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup sliced almonds
10 amaretti (1/2 cup), such as Asturi Italian, crushed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup light-brown sugar
Pinch of kosher salt
2 firm but ripe pears (each 8 to 10 ounces), peeled and sliced about 1/2 inch thick
1/3 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed and drained if frozen
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Pinch of ground cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon cornstarch
Vanilla ice cream or crème fraîche, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • For the Topping: Using your hands, mix together almonds, cookies, butter, brown sugar, and salt until butter is evenly distributed and mixture is crumbly. Refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.
  • For the Crisp: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a bowl, mix together pears, cranberries, granulated sugar, cinnamon, salt, and lemon juice. Stir in cornstarch to combine. Transfer to a mini pie dish (about 6 to 7 inches across top) or 2 individual gratin dishes (about 2 cups each).
  • Bake until juices reduce and mixture is beginning to bubble, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle evenly with amaretti mixture and continue to bake until topping is browned and crisp and mixture is bubbling in center, about 15 minutes more. Let cool 10 minutes, then serve warm with ice cream or crème fraîche.
